00:00:59.400 you're listening to the best of the glenn beck program
00:01:09.180 so there is a broad coalition uh for american communities it's gathering tomorrow march for
00:01:19.040 israel uh and it's happening at the national mall in washington dc it is to show uh the support for

00:01:36.400 that you go tomorrow i've checked this out six ways to sunday um these organizations i don't agree
00:01:43.980 with on everything but on this i absolutely agree march for israel tomorrow at the national mall
00:01:51.440 in washington dc we have rob on rob schneider is uh with us now he just turned 60 hey old man how are
00:01:59.360 you i don't know how that happened am i have to join that aarp i know i think you got till 65 i i think
00:02:06.720 i don't know uh i'm only 59 so um oh wow yeah wow so i'm i'm not old like you yet all right junior
00:02:16.340 okay uh so um rob you wrote a great article um about your journey into 60 and your advice at 60 but you
00:02:27.300 also talk about you've you've become a practicing catholic you've you've were you christian your whole
00:02:36.240 life and just never practicing or what's your story yeah i i was kind of going through life
00:02:41.000 slugging along ignoring god and uh pretending like uh there was uh like you know i kind of like the
00:02:48.340 atheist mistake of theirs um and you know they're my friends atheists but they make the mistake of
00:02:54.160 thinking like this whole universe is just this gigantic uh thing expanding and bumping into stuff
00:03:00.640 and uh that's meaningless and just and that we are some accidental freak of intelligence that just
00:03:06.800 happened and and it'll all go away and and i just think that you know if um as my buddy norm mcdonald
00:03:13.160 said you know we're not a we're we're we're a small fraction of the universe so if there is such a
00:03:18.440 thing as compassion love and uh and empathy then it must be endemic to this whole whole thing that we
00:03:25.520 exist in and um and and i i i think um you know the the little voice of uh jesus christ was uh was
00:03:34.040 never was always coming back to me even though i was going away from him and then finally i think
00:03:40.020 during all this and um kind of more obvious i don't know how else to say it but more obvious evil
00:03:46.740 in the world and uh uh i think it kind of uh it gave me a you know i kind of got back to it that
00:03:56.800 way because if there is this really organized evil in the world and and i don't think it's at all more
00:04:02.620 powerful but i do think it's it's here to to challenge us as of individually as a family as a
00:04:09.820 community and i think also as as you and i you know have come to really understand now as a nation
00:04:15.640 yeah that uh i think we um you know uh are you coming to god and realizing that um as the as father
00:04:23.900 ripperger said the and then the and i don't have the thing some people are having a question about
00:04:29.200 christianity is is in jesus whatever form it is i just for me catholicism works because sure it's the
00:04:36.460 closest to the word it's the closest to the actual word of jesus through um through the greek and latin
00:04:43.520 and and that's why that's uh it works for me so but um you know i saw an article about this uh in let
00:04:50.240 me look it was i think it was christianity today no christianpost.com uh and it uh it talked about
00:04:58.580 how you're you know you're you're you have failed in the past to show christ's forgiveness to those who
00:05:05.800 you disagree with um and it's really beautiful stuff that you've said about forgiving people etc etc
00:05:11.660 but then it goes into yeah but he's repeatedly weighed in on lgbtq uh related issues on his x account
00:05:22.340 um he was talking about the uh the female athlete getting spiked in the face by a male
00:05:29.520 competing with the women and he wrote this has got to stop if parents coaches and women athletes all
00:05:35.780 refuse to play against these men it all stops and then he was on the glenn beck program and he talked
00:05:42.180 about gender mutilation um and so they're trying to say that see you really haven't changed because
00:05:49.280 you're not forgiving of those things well that that's a difference between christ doesn't want us to
00:05:55.700 to just uh stand down and accept evil and forgive evil and let it to perpetuate christ wants us to
00:06:03.480 stand up against it you don't want to just you have to knock you know christ knocked over the the
00:06:10.000 the merchants that were no longer practicing uh at the temple because he and and showed a righteous
00:06:17.240 anger we have to protect the most vulnerable the members of our society our children now there's
00:06:23.680 this weird justification that it seems to be okay for women now to suddenly uh in for the quote
00:06:31.580 progress they need to take a back seat to other men and that's what these people are they're men
00:06:36.940 they're not women in any way shape or form and there's there's this strange societal narcissism
00:06:44.220 that is somehow accepted and in some ways is is i think is an attack on women which is an attack on
00:06:51.820 god and i think we need to stand up and protect them and and it's just a um there is evil that can
00:06:59.220 perpetuate and you know it's wrong and the people know it's wrong and i'm glad that uh that the female
00:07:05.180 athletes like riley gains are are actually talking and stepping up and my wife actually corrected me
00:07:12.500 because i said why don't the student why don't the student athletes and these women step up these you
00:07:18.800 know who are these swim teams or basketball teams or whatever or volleyball teams step up and say
00:07:23.620 something and she said they do but people aren't listening to them because people don't listen to
00:07:29.040 women and i said wow i mean i think i think she's right i i will tell you that um there's a great
00:07:36.760 misunderstanding on uh speaking the truth that's all that christ spoke was the truth and sometimes
00:07:44.720 people don't like it oh well it doesn't mean i stopped loving you um because you're my brother or
00:07:52.720 sister and i hope that you know some at some point truth corrects you and you come on the side of
00:07:59.920 truth but uh i don't hate you and uh i don't that's why i don't take it out i try not to take it out on
00:08:08.320 you it's really hard it's really hard it is hard it is hard and it's supposed to be hard and it's
00:08:14.960 supposed to be difficult but we have to we have to try to um we have to trust that that righteous
00:08:23.360 instinct and it's there to challenge us but we cannot be silent and we cannot uh we cannot stand
00:08:30.960 down when you know the especially the most vulnerable members of our society are now under
00:08:36.540 attack and i and i think it's you know the the lbgt lbgtq community that were it wasn't that's not
00:08:43.980 the whole community but the community that is pushing this uh knowingly knows it's wrong because
00:08:49.360 they went to a group of attorneys and they got advice about how to do this and they said don't do
00:08:56.200 it with any publicity as far as you know the um gender issues and the gender uh what they call
00:09:02.900 protections and it's interesting because they just rename protections for something that is the
00:09:07.480 opposite of it which is mutilation because you have like if these and it's i just tell people who
00:09:12.720 who because they use our goodwill against us which is inherently evil but if these children uh can't vote
00:09:22.500 we don't allow them to drive we don't allow them to own a gun we don't allow them to um join the army
00:09:31.020 uh we be or get even tattoos because they are not capable of making these permanent decisions about
00:09:39.220 these things but yet we're able to do these horrible and they are horrible right horrible things and that
00:09:45.560 have lifelong repercussions and you see um you know the in prager university there's a wonderful film
00:09:51.660 i'll say wonderful but there was a very knowledgeable and um informing film about the d transitioners
00:09:59.600 and it's just it's it's criminal and what it is it's sad and let the child uh you know at least
00:10:06.760 turn 18 before they decide to do something i think 18 also my child my oldest one my daughter she wasn't
00:10:13.060 an adult at 18 either i mean truthfully the brain doesn't stop till 25 right so but i do think at least
00:10:18.560 at a minimum if you have any conscience at all then that there should be um any faith at all
00:10:25.880 then you have wait till they're 18 before they make a decision and and um and and just don't
00:10:32.760 jump on any new fads especially a fad that has uh the the the the real evil of it is this idea that
00:10:40.600 they can be uh you know infertile and and just destroy themselves for life but i think there is a
00:10:47.440 um there is a really an attack on babies there's an attack on girls there's an attack on women this
00:10:54.740 whole thing is a culture of death i mean you look at what's happening with the palestinian uh
00:11:00.400 the rallies where they're openly chanting uh you know death to jews and send them to germany and
00:11:08.500 all of these horrible horrible things this every bit of this evil at us yeah is culture of death
00:11:16.220 it is a cultural it is a culture of death it's a culture it's just i think there's um there's
00:11:23.120 different ways to get at this and like you know my coming to christ was also an illogical sense of
00:11:30.000 i do think um you have the atheists now who have it's like the opposite of the snopes trial
00:11:36.760 the snopes trial which which cornered in the snopes trial was in the 1920s um which was about
00:11:44.000 christianity and evolution and the the idea that christianity was was trying to um
00:11:51.440 close in and close in and limit the idea of god's plan uh of uh which could have been evolutionary in
00:12:00.320 part for sure um was was was basically putting uh a fanatic spin on uh christianity and faith
00:12:10.160 what you have now is the opposite of the snopes trial you have a fanaticism coming from the atheists
00:12:18.120 coming from godless people and and that are um not wanting to see the potentiality of god
00:12:25.040 and the potentiality of what they're doing could be wrong and just the real real exposing this is
00:12:33.040 seeing the lbgtq community who are supporting hamas and palestinians and it's like somebody's got a
00:12:40.760 whisper in their ear hey they would kill you in a minute it was stowing you to death these these are
00:12:47.040 not people these are murderers you have to call them what they are and what it really the sad thing
00:12:52.660 about the pro-palestinian things you see on campus and you see it's like they you know when they say do
00:12:58.620 not forget never forget the holocaust it's because it it is something that can be forgotten
00:13:06.440 and it is being forgotten because it's the the very few of remaining holocaust uh survivors who
00:13:15.260 are children now very young children now you makes you realize a terrible thing glenn which is that the
00:13:22.080 the idea that the holocaust could have been you know well that's an end to this horrible anti-semitism
00:13:28.880 you realize that it isn't that it's just nope there's going to be a continual it was an apex
00:13:33.720 anti-semitism that there is not that there is going to be a continuation of pogroms and an attack
00:13:41.500 on these people and uh on our on these on this people because it is it is a continuation of
00:13:51.340 anti-semitism it is certainly not anyone near the end of it and and for people who um war is hell
00:13:59.440 and war is hell and and the idea that um somehow there's a clean more or there's a way to do it
00:14:05.700 i mean the death of of of of children in any situation is is abhorrent and horrible and the
00:14:12.300 uh and you try to prevent it the best you can but if i remember thinking of robert mcnamara
00:14:17.620 who was um working with uh the air force during world war ii they were talking about the fire
00:14:24.360 bombing of japanese cities and which was you know horrific something that horrific absolutely
00:14:31.980 horrific dresden was absolutely horrific maybe that more people died in dresden than nagasaki
00:14:37.960 and hiroshima combined the bombing of dresden um in in world war ii towards the end of uh
00:14:44.420 but to bring germany to its knees to end that war was a was a was a greater good and it's all
00:14:52.280 horrible but the idea that hamas is going to be allowed to survive in any form now for for our
00:14:58.740 questioning of it is um what is going to replace it you know that that's that's the question but
00:15:06.700 you have to we can't sit back and allow your people to be slaughtered no your babies you can't
00:15:13.140 and so we have to stand with israel and we have to know that this is something that it's it's um
00:15:18.840 it's not going to be easy and that there's there's going to be i mean it's going to require prayer it's
00:15:23.460 going to require god's help it's going to require our help but we have to be there for that and not
00:15:28.600 give in to uh this um hamas uh publicity campaign which they're very good at we're talking to uh rob
00:15:36.440 schneider he's actor comedian uh writer and he's just written a piece for uh the blaze.com
00:15:42.900 the gift of turning 60 where he talks about this and so much more uh and you can find that on the
00:15:49.920 front page of the blaze rob great talking to you thank you so much always thank you for your time
00:15:55.440 but thank you for your faith you bet god godspeed this is the best of the glenbeck program and don't
00:16:00.440 forget rate us on itunes let's let's continue our conversation on the covenant which is coming on
00:16:06.540 thursday and i pose this question at first why does everybody hate the jews scientists have
00:16:13.320 actually looked at this experts and historians this is really good question yeah why does everybody
00:16:18.140 seem to hate the jews uh one first they came up with five reasons one jews are hated because they're
00:16:25.100 an inferior race except jewishness is not a race any person any creed or color can convert to judaism
00:16:32.440 okay i convert to be a jew they would kill me just as fast okay next one economic jews are hated
00:16:42.660 because they possess too much wealth and power well okay there are some well-off jews uh but there are
00:16:48.700 millions of poor and downtrodden jews as well so jews are people too isn't it kind of weird like that
00:16:55.900 jews are hated because they're different from everyone else's answer number three they're outsiders
00:17:01.820 well jewish communities often tried to assimilate in the 18th century in europe they tried desperately
00:17:08.700 to assimilate how'd that work out for them scapegoat answer number four the jews are hated because
00:17:16.820 they're the cause for all the world's problems they've been hated because they're an easy target
00:17:22.260 okay d aside the jews are hated because they killed jesus christ i just like to point out i'm pretty
00:17:31.460 sure that were those were the romans that killed jesus they were the ones so i asked the question
00:17:38.800 again why do people hate the jews and why is america second in line notice that we're the great satan
00:17:51.480 why i think there's really one reason the jewish people know who they are they're the children of
00:18:01.100 israel they are from the promised land they are god's chosen people who says they're chosen people
00:18:08.800 that's not that's not right everybody's searching for answers searching for the truth jews have
00:18:18.060 something unique they have an eternal identity that has been spoken and it's an identity that is built
00:18:26.960 built on traditions laws promise faith in god a covenant a rock of a covenant and the jewish people
00:18:36.080 work hard at studying and teaching that covenant they've handed down the traditions and blessings from
00:18:42.540 one generation to another for thousands of years they are very clear who they are
00:18:49.120 now just that alone holding on to who you are passing on customs and traditions and conventions
00:19:02.160 that makes you a little peculiar in today's we're not doing it they are and their covenant gives them a
00:19:11.200 relationship with god and with one another it binds them it lifts them up you know the attitude in
00:19:18.160 israel is extraordinarily positive right now i have heard that people have told me in israel that
00:19:25.880 everybody's very optimistic they're all like we're going to win this and we're going to solve this
00:19:30.800 problem and they're not cowering in fear where do they get that the covenant of god gives them
00:19:38.820 confidence that they're going to be blessed if they do what they're supposed to do in a world where
00:19:45.160 the foundations of truth and reality are being destroyed and being distorted that kind of confidence
00:19:53.500 lends itself to envy and as yoda warned us envy leads to jealousy jealousy leads to hate hate leads to
00:20:04.880 anger and anger leads to the dark side or something like that like suffering or shut up
00:20:11.480 i'll tell you i'll tell you what yoda said
00:20:15.200 we are suffering today are we not and it's because we're not grateful it's because we forgot who we are
00:20:27.320 jealousy
00:20:31.000 it leads to riots abuse and kidnappings it's led us to war and over and over again it has led to mass
00:20:40.700 genocide you see i think why the jews are so hated is it's satan's way of winning against god
00:20:49.160 this is this is the scriptures according to glenn so take it for what it's worth
00:20:54.420 god made the covenant god did i'll be your god you will be my people you will grow in size
00:21:03.960 all satan has to do to beat god is to kill god's chosen people that forces if i kill all of his
00:21:15.420 people then he's no longer god because he said he would protect them
00:21:21.500 and if we're looking away for a way out of our situation the surest way is to follow the example
00:21:30.040 of the jew remember who you are remember too that we're number two we're the great satan we're next
00:21:41.340 and that's because we too are a covenant people you notice it's not great britain that they're saying is a
00:21:47.700 great satan it's us it's us because we when the pilgrims set foot in america they step forward
00:21:54.860 not only on the rock at plymouth but on the rock of the covenant comparisons are made all the time
00:22:01.980 between the jews and the pilgrims and the pilgrims were also reviled they were persecuted they were
00:22:07.440 led to a land of promise and like the jews the pilgrims built on traditions laws and faith in god
00:22:14.100 the pilgrims worked hard they didn't blame others they studied they sought and taught the covenant
00:22:21.040 they handed down promises and blessings from one generation to the next they forged a nation
00:22:27.280 built on a relationship with god but we when we get to next week and we're celebrating thanksgiving
00:22:34.440 how many of us are thinking about any of those things any of them we've abandoned our promises
00:22:40.540 we've cast aside our blessings we've given up on our relationship with god
00:22:45.420 but let thursday change this because we can pick up the mantle of our national covenant again
00:22:53.080 and the pilgrims made their covenant with us i i tell you with us not some generic us but us
00:23:04.080 the people living today in mind
00:23:07.100 they're nearing the first thanksgiving they had so many trials
00:23:13.000 only half of their company is left half died on the way over then the other half the half of the
00:23:21.540 other half died in the first winter william brewster is one of the survivors and he said for some divine
00:23:27.220 purpose we yet remain it is our master's will that we stand or fall here and in our harvest trials
00:23:35.120 has not the divine presence been with us wherefore let us stand we believe this movement to be from him
00:23:42.900 if he prosper us we shall be the means of planting here a christian colony and of ending hence its precious
00:23:51.120 blessing blessed blessed it will be for us blessed for this land for this vast continent generations to come
00:24:00.680 shall look back to this hour and find these scenes of agonizing trial
00:24:06.420 to this day of small things and say
00:24:09.320 here was our beginning as a people
00:24:11.640 these were our fathers
00:24:14.080 through their trials we inherit our blessings
00:24:17.800 their faith is our faith
00:24:19.980 their hope is our hope
00:24:21.500 their god is our god
00:24:24.260 that's what the covenant is about
00:24:27.180 you have inherited the blessings
00:24:31.180 and the responsibilities that have come with this covenant
00:24:35.220 you didn't make it
00:24:36.360 but our pilgrims
00:24:38.100 george washington and abraham lincoln

00:24:40.780 we've made this
00:24:43.020 this is
00:24:43.900 what god means when he says
00:24:46.500 if that nation will turn

00:26:31.960 um
00:26:32.800 it
00:26:33.220 it all really revolves
00:26:34.560 around the truth
00:26:35.540 and we have
00:26:36.520 a problem
00:26:37.360 with truth
00:26:39.020 right now
00:26:39.860 and i know
00:26:40.760 you have a book out
00:26:41.700 and you talk about
00:26:42.680 a um
00:26:43.480 a pastor
00:26:44.880 that uh
00:26:46.920 you were talking
00:26:47.800 talking to
00:26:48.780 and he said
00:26:49.680 let me tell you about
00:26:50.520 my bible study
00:26:51.520 that i had a few weeks ago
00:26:53.420 and he was uh
00:26:55.120 teaching uh
00:26:56.540 first corinthians
00:26:57.640 chapter five
00:26:58.580 can you tell that story
00:26:59.720 do you remember that story
00:27:02.600 no
00:27:04.540 no
00:27:05.100 i
00:27:05.540 you gotta
00:27:05.920 you gotta
00:27:06.260 you gotta help me
00:27:06.820 okay so
00:27:07.280 he said
00:27:08.000 he was sitting
00:27:08.640 sitting down
00:27:09.540 in a group full of
00:27:10.380 uh
00:27:10.940 people
00:27:11.460 and
00:27:12.600 he was
00:27:13.560 watching
00:27:14.020 the young
00:27:14.940 um
00:27:15.980 people
00:27:16.540 because he
00:27:17.840 got to the
00:27:18.380 part of the text
00:27:19.220 where it involved
00:27:20.100 an affair
00:27:20.780 uh
00:27:21.900 and uh
00:27:23.500 that he knew
00:27:24.300 that
00:27:24.620 you know
00:27:25.480 there was going
00:27:25.940 to be problems
00:27:26.500 and he said
00:27:27.780 it wasn't
00:27:29.080 the problem
00:27:29.780 of the illicit
00:27:30.940 affair
00:27:31.480 that intrigued
00:27:32.980 the younger
00:27:33.820 set
00:27:34.080 but the idea
00:27:35.060 that paul
00:27:35.860 would have
00:27:36.420 yeah paul
00:27:37.460 would have
00:27:37.840 the audacity
00:27:38.660 the idea
00:27:39.340 of the response
00:27:40.220 right
00:27:40.680 that he should
00:27:41.620 be removed
00:27:42.120 from the church
00:27:42.860 yeah
00:27:44.460 yeah
00:27:44.820 um
00:27:45.880 yeah
00:27:46.300 well yeah
00:27:46.620 when you start
00:27:47.040 asking me
00:27:47.400 about the stories
00:27:48.060 in the
00:27:48.440 i'm sorry
00:27:49.000 yeah
00:27:49.300 yeah
00:27:49.560 you can throw
00:27:49.980 me a little
00:27:50.360 bit
00:27:50.580 i know
00:27:50.960 yeah
00:27:51.600 that that
00:27:52.240 was the idea
00:27:53.120 that the people
00:27:54.380 were offended
00:27:55.640 by the absolute
00:27:58.120 truth claim
00:27:58.880 more offended
00:28:00.040 by the absolute
00:28:00.640 truth claim
00:28:01.260 than they were
00:28:02.340 by the sin
00:28:03.260 itself
00:28:03.780 it's as though
00:28:05.180 in in this
00:28:06.300 a the greatest
00:28:08.340 sin that you
00:28:09.640 can commit
00:28:10.320 is not what
00:28:11.960 god calls sin
00:28:13.140 but actually
00:28:14.160 calling out
00:28:15.180 what god calls
00:28:16.500 sin
00:28:16.860 and you know
00:28:18.480 the the reason
00:28:19.820 that i sort of
00:28:21.060 hesitate with that
00:28:21.740 story is because
00:28:23.080 you know
00:28:23.600 this is an
00:28:25.340 updated and
00:28:26.160 re-released
00:28:26.560 version of a
00:28:27.860 book my first
00:28:28.920 book yeah
00:28:29.760 i actually wrote
00:28:30.320 in in 2004
00:28:31.320 and that's one of
00:28:32.160 the stories from
00:28:32.860 the actual from
00:28:33.760 the original you
00:28:34.620 know book back
00:28:35.160 in 2004
00:28:35.740 and the reason
00:28:36.920 that we redid
00:28:38.040 this the reason
00:28:38.660 that we did a
00:28:39.240 an update and
00:28:40.280 revision was
00:28:41.380 because those
00:28:43.000 things back
00:28:44.660 then are not
00:28:46.060 only still with
00:28:47.240 us but they've
00:28:48.540 actually grown
00:28:49.540 and mutated
00:28:50.900 oh yeah
00:28:51.800 and so today
00:28:53.160 you know it
00:28:54.380 wouldn't be you
00:28:55.600 know an affair
00:28:56.500 today it would
00:28:58.140 be something
00:28:58.700 about you
00:28:59.740 know that
00:29:00.360 trans and
00:29:01.660 actually saying
00:29:02.460 that you know
00:29:03.140 trans women
00:29:04.100 are not
00:29:05.360 real women
00:29:06.100 but the fact
00:29:07.380 of the matter
00:29:07.720 is that this
00:29:08.500 new version
00:29:09.300 of tolerance
00:29:10.040 has elevated
00:29:11.760 um so you
00:29:13.260 know everybody's
00:29:14.260 personal desire
00:29:15.400 above the word
00:29:16.360 of god
00:29:16.660 how do you
00:29:17.580 how do you
00:29:18.240 describe this
00:29:19.680 new tolerance
00:29:20.480 because tolerance
00:29:21.280 used to mean
00:29:22.800 that you know
00:29:23.740 you just put up
00:29:25.020 with somebody
00:29:25.720 who's saying
00:29:26.620 things you don't
00:29:27.220 necessarily agree
00:29:27.900 with or don't
00:29:28.420 like and you're
00:29:29.040 just like you
00:29:29.820 know just let
00:29:31.220 it pass
00:29:31.800 but now you
00:29:33.440 can't do that
00:29:34.100 right
00:29:34.980 no no no
00:29:36.480 the the new
00:29:37.680 tolerance you
00:29:38.580 know that it's
00:29:39.420 it's there's
00:29:39.980 three pieces
00:29:40.640 there's relativism
00:29:41.700 pluralism and
00:29:42.600 tolerance and you
00:29:44.360 know I put these
00:29:44.820 together and talk
00:29:46.300 about how they
00:29:46.780 form this foundation
00:29:48.060 their relativism the
00:29:49.440 idea that you know
00:29:50.220 truth is relative
00:29:50.940 there's no absolute
00:29:51.900 truth pluralism all
00:29:53.620 ideas are equal and
00:29:55.900 of equal value
00:29:56.680 tolerance is that
00:30:00.560 you must celebrate
00:30:01.820 the ideas of
00:30:03.820 others and
00:30:05.700 consider them of
00:30:07.280 equal value to
00:30:09.140 your own so
00:30:10.600 it's it's not
00:30:11.780 disagreeing agreeably
00:30:13.840 it's not disagreeing
00:30:16.780 at all but
00:30:17.980 there's a caveat
00:30:18.620 and the caveat
00:30:19.960 is there are
00:30:22.480 truths with which
00:30:23.500 you can disagree
00:30:24.240 and they are
00:30:25.580 truths found in
00:30:26.720 the scripture you
00:30:27.800 don't have to
00:30:28.480 you don't have to
00:30:29.380 tolerate truths that
00:30:30.280 are found in the
00:30:31.200 scripture you have
00:30:31.940 to tolerate all
00:30:32.700 people but you
00:30:33.600 don't have to
00:30:34.100 tolerate you know
00:30:35.320 white male
00:30:36.200 heterosexual
00:30:36.920 cisgendered able
00:30:38.160 bodied right
00:30:38.840 native born right
00:30:40.340 so again this new
00:30:41.560 tolerance is is
00:30:42.520 selective and
00:30:43.540 intolerant you
00:30:45.840 know there's a I
00:30:46.820 I've I've noticed
00:30:48.540 a really disturbing
00:30:49.680 trend as we
00:30:51.960 all least God
00:30:54.080 fearing people
00:30:54.700 have started to
00:30:57.620 go you know
00:30:58.360 maybe we
00:31:01.320 better turn back
00:31:02.240 to God maybe I
00:31:03.380 haven't done what
00:31:04.300 I was supposed to
00:31:05.200 do maybe I
00:31:06.120 haven't you know
00:31:07.240 I'm not the best
00:31:08.140 representative of
00:31:09.580 my faith and
00:31:11.700 more and more
00:31:12.180 people are starting
00:31:12.960 to turn there and
00:31:14.360 some people are
00:31:15.500 taking I've I've
00:31:17.380 talked to several
00:31:18.160 people in in
00:31:19.180 America who
00:31:20.440 believe that our
00:31:21.780 Constitution it's
00:31:23.640 old outdated on
00:31:24.860 our side it's old
00:31:26.260 outdated and it
00:31:27.500 needs to be
00:31:28.100 replaced with more
00:31:29.300 of a religious
00:31:30.220 state which to
00:31:32.100 me is terrifying
00:31:34.100 and not the path
00:31:35.960 that we're supposed
00:31:36.680 to go down
00:31:37.340 yeah it's
00:31:41.300 interesting you
00:31:41.980 know to think
00:31:43.600 that our
00:31:44.080 Constitution the
00:31:45.000 U.S.
00:31:45.220 Constitution is
00:31:45.880 the oldest
00:31:46.720 standing Constitution
00:31:48.260 in the world
00:31:49.740 by far and I
00:31:50.880 think it speaks
00:31:51.820 to it speaks
00:31:53.200 to God's
00:31:54.000 providence and
00:31:55.080 the genius of
00:31:56.620 the individuals
00:31:57.400 you know who
00:31:58.780 put it together
00:32:00.200 but you know
00:32:02.460 that doesn't
00:32:03.380 mean that it
00:32:05.040 can't be eroded
00:32:06.100 and it is being
00:32:07.460 eroded and I
00:32:09.560 don't think the
00:32:10.220 answer to the
00:32:11.420 erosion is to
00:32:13.100 somehow do what
00:32:14.600 other countries do
00:32:15.840 all the time
00:32:16.760 which is
00:32:17.420 abandon it
00:32:18.160 you know and
00:32:19.460 try to do
00:32:20.780 something new
00:32:21.600 and try to do
00:32:22.260 something different
00:32:23.520 because the fact
00:32:24.400 of the matter is
00:32:25.140 you know our
00:32:26.460 worldview and
00:32:28.100 foundation is so
00:32:30.500 skewed that
00:32:32.140 whatever we came
00:32:33.080 up with I'd be
00:32:33.980 afraid of
00:32:34.560 yeah so would
00:32:35.780 I the the
00:32:37.340 idea though
00:32:38.380 that we have
00:32:40.740 people from all
00:32:41.580 different faiths
00:32:42.560 but we are a
00:32:43.540 Judeo-Christian
00:32:44.380 nation that's
00:32:45.740 what we were
00:32:46.300 founded on
00:32:47.140 so how you
00:32:49.240 know go ahead
00:32:50.020 that's why that's
00:32:51.160 why we can have
00:32:52.140 people of so many
00:32:53.240 different faiths
00:32:54.360 because our
00:32:55.580 biblical morality
00:32:57.160 is such that we
00:32:59.820 do not force
00:33:01.200 our faith on
00:33:02.740 others it is
00:33:03.920 our biblical
00:33:04.580 morality that
00:33:05.580 laid the
00:33:06.000 foundation for
00:33:07.280 people to come
00:33:08.200 and be free
00:33:09.440 it's our
00:33:10.600 biblical morality
00:33:11.480 that created
00:33:12.400 the environment
00:33:13.280 and ironically
00:33:15.180 people are now
00:33:16.840 trying to throw
00:33:17.740 away that
00:33:18.380 biblical morality
00:33:19.240 and the end
00:33:20.680 result will be
00:33:21.860 tyranny not
00:33:23.440 tolerance
00:33:23.940 the the average
00:33:25.840 the role of the
00:33:26.920 average Christian
00:33:27.940 in I mean
00:33:29.220 we've I think
00:33:31.120 tolerance has been
00:33:32.120 used against us
00:33:33.500 because we've
00:33:34.700 wanted to be kind
00:33:35.840 etc etc and we
00:33:37.720 stop speaking the
00:33:38.780 truth and
00:33:40.280 that's so
00:33:41.660 misunderstood in
00:33:43.340 today's world
00:33:44.000 what what role
00:33:45.700 should a
00:33:47.940 Christian play
00:33:48.940 in today's
00:33:49.720 society what
00:33:51.300 should we be
00:33:51.940 doing
00:33:52.320 yeah and you
00:33:54.920 know I talk
00:33:55.480 about this in the
00:33:56.000 book too and at
00:33:56.740 the end of the
00:33:57.180 day we're
00:33:57.640 truth tellers
00:33:58.600 at the end of
00:33:59.700 the day we
00:34:00.280 we stand on
00:34:01.540 the truth of
00:34:02.740 the gospel
00:34:03.400 at the end of
00:34:04.460 the day we love
00:34:05.200 people enough to
00:34:06.060 tell them the
00:34:06.640 truth we believe
00:34:08.460 that all men
00:34:09.340 are sinners and
00:34:10.520 that there is
00:34:10.960 only one answer
00:34:12.220 to man's sin
00:34:13.240 problem and
00:34:14.320 when we present
00:34:15.280 Christ and his
00:34:16.580 person and work
00:34:17.740 as the answer to
00:34:18.560 man's sin problem
00:34:19.360 that is not us
00:34:20.620 saying I'm
00:34:21.380 superior to you
00:34:22.600 that's us saying
00:34:23.820 I'm just one
00:34:24.860 beggar telling
00:34:25.480 another beggar
00:34:26.160 where I found
00:34:26.740 bread
00:34:27.120 tell me your
00:34:31.120 help help on
00:34:32.420 this there are so
00:34:33.340 many people I
00:34:34.680 was just talking
00:34:35.120 to Rob Schneider
00:34:35.960 the actor and
00:34:37.240 comedian and
00:34:37.940 he just
00:34:39.140 converted and
00:34:40.880 he's now a
00:34:42.360 Christian where
00:34:42.820 he was kind of
00:34:43.400 nothing and
00:34:45.480 he said it's
00:34:47.460 because evil is
00:34:48.440 becoming so
00:34:49.260 apparent now I
00:34:50.860 figured I should
00:34:51.980 pick a side
00:34:52.580 but for some
00:34:54.940 reason evil is
00:34:56.080 not apparent to
00:34:57.440 so many for
00:34:58.160 instance I feel
00:34:59.640 bad for the
00:35:00.620 innocent people
00:35:01.960 in Gaza that
00:35:03.500 might be killed
00:35:04.380 as collateral
00:35:05.760 damage in a
00:35:07.620 war just like
00:35:09.280 I felt bad
00:35:10.020 for Germans
00:35:10.860 that were killed
00:35:11.780 in the war as
00:35:13.560 collateral damage
00:35:14.860 but you're
00:35:17.880 seeing people
00:35:18.540 now on the
00:35:19.140 streets call
00:35:21.060 for the death
00:35:21.920 of Jews
00:35:22.500 quoting Hitler
00:35:23.900 and still so
00:35:27.240 many people all
00:35:28.020 around the world
00:35:28.580 are not waking
00:35:29.760 up to think
00:35:31.260 this sounds
00:35:31.700 evil how do
00:35:33.820 you how do
00:35:35.520 you get people
00:35:36.220 to wake up if
00:35:37.140 they will stare
00:35:38.340 evil in its
00:35:39.080 face and do
00:35:41.460 nothing yeah
00:35:44.940 that and
00:35:45.540 that's the great
00:35:46.260 irony you know
00:35:47.420 it people do
00:35:48.720 see evil but
00:35:50.440 you know as
00:35:51.260 Isaiah warns
00:35:52.260 they actually
00:35:52.960 call good evil
00:35:54.420 and evil good
00:35:56.260 and ultimately
00:35:58.400 this is a
00:35:59.640 worldview issue
00:36:00.720 you keep
00:36:01.760 hearing this
00:36:02.500 same and we've
00:36:03.440 talked about this
00:36:03.980 before when I
00:36:05.140 was there with
00:36:05.520 you in person
00:36:06.060 the same
00:36:07.380 neo-Marxist
00:36:08.400 worldview that
00:36:09.080 divides the
00:36:09.860 world into
00:36:11.220 oppressors and
00:36:12.420 the oppressed
00:36:13.080 and when you
00:36:14.360 look at
00:36:15.260 conflicts
00:36:16.400 you look at
00:36:17.740 conflicts through
00:36:18.740 that lens of
00:36:20.320 who qualifies
00:36:22.000 as the
00:36:22.800 oppressor
00:36:23.680 here
00:36:24.480 not by their
00:36:25.620 actions
00:36:26.240 right but by
00:36:27.000 your
00:36:27.160 classifications
00:36:27.840 and who
00:36:28.660 qualifies as
00:36:29.500 the oppressed
00:36:30.140 and people are
00:36:31.180 making decisions
00:36:32.260 based on that
00:36:34.100 and solely
00:36:35.240 based on that
00:36:36.460 and that
00:36:38.740 stops them from
00:36:39.800 seeing
00:36:40.540 evil things
00:36:42.700 that they grew
00:36:43.420 up knowing
00:36:44.360 I mean there's
00:36:45.480 not a person
00:36:46.200 except for
00:36:47.080 Nazis
00:36:47.480 there's not a
00:36:48.720 person in
00:36:49.180 America that
00:36:49.960 didn't grow up
00:36:50.800 being taught
00:36:51.540 you know the
00:36:53.040 holocaust was
00:36:54.140 a horror show
00:36:56.240 yeah yeah
00:36:59.620 and that's
00:37:00.820 part of the
00:37:01.420 great you know
00:37:02.080 irony and all
00:37:02.800 this but
00:37:03.820 there's less
00:37:05.080 of that being
00:37:06.240 taught than
00:37:07.520 there is
00:37:08.340 this
00:37:09.300 oppressor
00:37:10.540 oppressed
00:37:11.280 binary which
00:37:12.680 is interesting
00:37:13.260 because we
00:37:13.780 don't want
00:37:14.260 binaries with
00:37:15.440 male and
00:37:15.800 female but we
00:37:16.400 want binaries
00:37:17.160 with oppressor
00:37:18.340 oppressed right
00:37:19.180 but there's
00:37:20.040 so much of
00:37:20.760 that being
00:37:21.620 taught and
00:37:22.940 it overwhelms
00:37:24.440 anything else
00:37:25.760 that's being
00:37:26.360 taught in
00:37:28.080 terms of
00:37:28.620 history and
00:37:29.800 also what's
00:37:31.360 being taught
00:37:31.960 is that
00:37:33.060 there's certain
00:37:33.980 ideologies
00:37:35.920 that are
00:37:37.720 evil because
00:37:38.660 these ideologies
00:37:39.820 are used to
00:37:41.020 oppress people
00:37:41.740 and also this
00:37:42.760 whole idea of
00:37:43.520 anti-colonialism
00:37:44.820 right and so
00:37:45.880 if you can
00:37:46.560 classify someone
00:37:47.880 as a colonizer
00:37:50.200 right I mean
00:37:51.780 that's like the
00:37:52.540 worst thing in
00:37:53.460 the world that
00:37:54.260 anyone could do
00:37:55.200 or be and
00:37:56.160 anything that
00:37:56.860 happens to them
00:37:57.740 they deserve
00:37:58.540 Na-na-na-na
00:38:00.100 Na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na
00:38:00.540 Na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na it-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-nee-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na.
